AntJireptes chlorogastra, Sharpe, Tr. L. S. ser. 2, Zool. i, p. 342. 



[Cebu, male, April.] 



A single example of the genus was obtained by Mr. Everett ; but as it represents a young 

 male before it has assumed its metallic plumage, it is impossible to identify it with any certainty. 

 One or two violet scapulars are present ; and one of the occipital feathers is also violet. In 

 A. chlorogastra the head is said to be metallic green. 



49. CORVUS PHILIPPINUS (125). 



[Cebu, male, March. Iris brown, bill and legs black.]

 Not separable from Luzon examples. Sexes alike.

In Mr. Everett's examples (male and female) the black mesial band is not confluent with 

 the black of the breast. The species is very similar to M. ruhrinigra, but has the black on the 

 abdomen more fully developed.
